An award-winning Viking tale of the Draugr King and the Last Oracle.
Torunn's sister is the last oracle and the Draugr King has come to claim her magic. His father had always been a vessel for the gods, but now Torunn will take up his father's axe and fight, even if the spirits of the long dead oracles forbid it.
He'll help his sister gather winter's magic through three tasks. They must find the heart of the gods that lies in a single snowberry in the forest protected by ancient powers. Next will be to recruit spirits of their long dead ancestors, for humans have magic too and take it with them into death. Finally, he must build a sacrificial bonfire so that his prayers can ride on the smoke into the skies and rain down the power they'll need to take down the Draugr King.
What Torunn fears most is losing his sister. The magic of the draugr and oracles are a never-ending cycle of suffering and pain. To break the cycle, he'll have to do the unimaginable, even if he must steal all of winter's magic himself to be the vessel his father had never been.
